Chapter 38



Ouyang Feilong was able to suppress his emotion for quite a while now, but seeing the woman who was like his mother made him forget that this little fool was not the same person as her, and so his tone turned unconsciously cold. When he saw her beautiful face, what he had heard her say to her sister from earlier today resurfaced and made the truth in his heart clearer than ever. All women pretended to be good in front of others to maintain their images, but when in private they would reveal their cruelty and corruptness.

How could he not hate fake women like them?

In the army, sincerity and trust were most important. If those were not present, then he would never dare turn his back toward his own soldiers to face the enemy. Without trust, his back would already be stabbed through.

“Wangye...Is something the matter?”

A soft voice asked the question that Ouyang Feilong never expected to hear from anyone. He turned unusually quiet at the query.

Apart from Emperor Ouyang Hongxian, former commander general Yue, and lieutenant-general Bai He, no one knew of his life’s struggle. For this woman who was like a stranger, it would be even more impossible for her to know anything. Yet she still asked that, when he thought he could conceal his sadness. Even his close companion, lieutenant-general Yue Huiling never noticed, then how could she ask so?

Ouyang Feilong stared at the woman in front of him with a heart full of turmoil. Was she faking? Or was this her truthful question?

“Are you still injured? Is your wound not completely healed?” Bai Yu asked again with a worried voice that she never thought she would use with him now. She intended to vent her anger on him at first, but her every thought stopped the moment their eyes met.

.....

The majority of her former life was spent on acting. A good actor must express their emotion through both body and eyes, and the latter was the most crucial aspect. If one could not convey their emotion through their eyes to the acting partner, then both would not be able to tune in to their roles and the resulting scene would be incomplete.

Apart from communicating through one’s own eyes, accepting the emotion that the other person sent was no less important. Bai Yu had to be able to read her partner’s gaze and understand what it implied in order to match their acting. This was the skill she honed from experience, making her sensitive to the change in others’ eyes.

And the eyes of the man in front of her did not reflect indifference like before. Every time she looked at those silver irises, it would be indifferent, but at the same time lively. It was the eyes that hid a faint ‘hope’ within.

She used to be curious about how the eyes of those who went to war since young would be. Obviously, it was cold, aggressive, and absolute. Someone who had bloodied hands that had killed countless people must more or less have bloodthirst. But Ouyang Feilong did not. Maybe, it was that ‘hope’ hidden inside that prevented him from becoming a killing machine.

Knowing that her older brother had him as commander made Bai Yu relief.

Currently, he still had the same fa?ade of indifference, but the ‘hope’ he had had disappeared. It was replaced by the eyes of someone whose soul was shattered. That...might be Ouyang Feilong’s true feeling.

It was as if this man in front of her was an empty shell and nothing within...

Because of that, Bai Yu could not help but feel worried for him. The question she had in her heart was blurted out without thinking, or maybe even after thinking, she would insist on asking the same thing again.

He might be a brute or a foul-mouthed, but he was still a person. This man was in deadly pain but had to endure to live on for the nation. Bai Yu did not wish for any person to be hurt this much, because she understood it well, and so she did not want anyone to go through the same feeling as hers. Looking into the empty and soulless eyes like this saddened Bai Yu...What hurt this black dragon? Was there anything she could do to help him?

“Benwang is fine, just annoyed because of a foolish woman’s tantrum.”

Ouyang Feilong no longer cared whether she was faking or not. Whatever answer he gave to that question...no one would be able to help him. He never wanted concern from any woman, and this place was not his. Even if she was truly worried for him, he still had to leave today, and it was uncertain that she would still remember him in the future.

“It’s all because of you,” Bai Yu muttered, forgetting that she was speaking informally with him again. Originally, she was never a polite or reserved person. After crossing into this world, she had to be even more careful. But there were too many times that she slipped up in front of this man because he was provoking her all the time!

“What did benwang do?” The esteemed Rui Wang did not take offense from her casualness. It was odd that he felt at ease when there was someone who talked to him in common words. Normally, everyone would speak with flowery language and formality, since he was a royal.

An abandoned royal...

“You’re stealing big brother from me.”

“But you already have your dear sister with you?” He emphasized the word dear sister. A glimpse of life returned to the soulless eyes as he started mocking her again.

You’re as two-faced as me, Ouyang Feilong! “How can I be closer with a sister than a brother?”

“You’re telling benwang that you’re more used to being close to men than women?”

She meant that she was closer to her brother born from the same mother!

“Blessings to Wangye.”

Bai Yu’s argument was interrupted by her brother and mother who came to greet the Wangye. Bai He was already wearing armor with a black cloak, a uniform of the grand army.

“I am ready, Your Highness.”

“Benwang has reconsidered.”

The other three people stared at the speaker’s face in confusion. What did Wangye reconsider?

“Benwang will return to the border alone. You stay here and help Huiling take care of the mission.”

The pain of separation was something Ouyang Feilong understood best. The foolish woman’s protest reminded him that he should not take Bai He away from his family right now. He should not be so selfish and steal Bai He just because he was feeling weak and needed his lieutenant-general who was like a brother beside him. He should let his brother stay with his own family, otherwise, a certain shameless woman around here would burn the mansion to the ground.

“I will go with you, Your Highness,” Bai He firmly insisted. He knew well what Wangye had to face, and he could not let the weakened black dragon travel back alone. Even if he had to leave his sister and mother.

“Benwang wants you to be with your family,” Ouyang Feilong repeated. He knew that his lieutenant-general was concerned, but as the commander, he should not be selfish.

“Wangye please do not worry. Brother was determined to go with you, and as for me, I can go visit him whenever.”

Though she was happy that her brother would be able to stay beside her longer, she still respected Bai He’s choice to return to the border with Ouyang Feilong.

“Can a fool like you go to that dangerous border?”

She already backed down for him, then why would he still rile her up like this. “Someday I will surely stop being foolish and become strong.”

Ouyang Feilong was amused by the small woman’s overconfidence. Bai He saw his reaction and turned to meet his eyes with his mother’s. Somehow Bai Yu and the commander general became close without them knowing?

“Benwang will wait.”

“Someday I will become stronger than Your Highness, and that day I will take my brother back!”

Ouyang Feilong was stunned.

Bai He and Yue Mei immediately kneeled. “Bai Yu was out of line, Wangye please be merciful.”

The royal was still quiet, while Bai Yu was puzzled as to why they would suddenly kneel and be so afraid of Ouyang Feilong. Then, she was pulled by her mother to also kneel to ask for mercy.

“Heh!”

Bai Yu pressed her lips together. Was he angry?

“Hahahahaha”

Those on the floor were dumbfounded. W...Wangye was laughing! The dark dragon who was solemn and stern was laughing?!

“Hahaha. The fool will become a strong woman. Hahahaha. Benwang will wait for that day, little girl. Hahahaha.”

Three of them heaved a sigh of relief. Ouyang Feilong’s laughter made Bai Yu’s heart race uncontrollably. This time, she had to overcome the ‘fool’ label he had for her.

Ouyang Feilong was able to broaden his view because of the fake woman. He laughed at her for a while before returning to his usual calmness. The silver eyes glinted with humor as he walked toward the front gate, signaling his departure.

The head of the Bai family was standing at the front gate. He was woken up by his daughter’s tantrum but did not interfere because he knew that Bai Yu’s outburst was uncontrollable even for him. And so, he chose to wait to see off Rui Wang at the gate instead of going to welcome him at the main building.

Politics prevented him from being too close to Rui Wang. Just by letting his son become lieutenant-general, he was already straining his good favor with Empress Dowager Wei enough.

“Farewell to Wangye.”

The royal cavalcade this time consisted of no more than ten people, though a strong aura of magic could be felt from all of them. Bai He hugged his sister and mother, made a fist-to-hand salute to his father, then turned to his horse.

Ouyang Feilong was the last person to get on his horse, but Bai Yu’s voice interrupted him. “Wangye.”

The beautiful face with swollen eyes because of crying appeared to him when he turned back. The first miss’s behavior today could be called offensive, but for some reason that he himself did not know, he would always forgive her.

Forget it...she was just a foolish girl.

The cavalcade was far from the front gate where her mother and father were standing at. The soldier’s horses were also a little distance away from the general’s horse that was at the front. Bai Yu did not have to worry that the word she was going to say would be heard by anyone, though she still would not care if someone heard it.

The slender figure stood in the cold in front of Ouyang Feilong. Her dark eyes gazed deep into his silver as her thin lips moved to form a sentence, to which Ouyang Feilong listened intently.

“May the force be with you.”
